If the heat gets too much you can step inside one of the contemporary air-conditioned malls with cool tiled flooring and fountains, allowing you to enjoy a mixture of big American and Mexican brands and international favorites. Mexico is a popular destination for enthusiastic golfers, and the professional 18-hole Riviera Cancun Golf Resort has long sweeping fairways with well-kept greens and views of the calm ocean.
